State of the Union

Fellow Ball of Waxers

The premises for which The Whole Ball of Wax was establish requires that its faithful readers be addressed from time to time on the State of its Union.

From the time of its creation some eight months ago, The Whole Ball of Wax has sought to deliver posts on a tri-daily if not bi-daily basis. In the first month we hit this mark only to find ourselves falter in the next two. After a steep learning curve we found our stride in July producing 16 posts and topped it in September with 17. Although article posts were down in the month of November, it was the only month where The Whole Ball of Wax had daily activity thanks to our successful Movemeber campaign. Despite this great productivity, it doesn’t take a rocket surgeon to notice the lack of production on this site in the month of December.

Over the past few weeks, visitors have navigated to The Whole Ball of Wax hoping for something new to read. Instead, they continue to read the heading Ballsy Journey. This stagnant state has prompted the rumor mill in Whole Ball of Wax Land to turn frantically. Today we set out to crush these rumors and to set the record straight.

Some have suggested that the recent Nor’easters that pounded the Halifax area cut off our Internet connection. Although the strong winds from the storm did blow a lady into oncoming traffic last week leaving her in hysterics, the Internet has remained in tact. Others have speculated that the writers of The Whole Ball of Wax have left to write for The Whole Ball of Yarn over in Dartmouth. Although the offers were lucrative, all full time writers remain with The Whole Ball of Wax. Finally, readers have suggested blogging is dead. After weeks of research, we have decided this statement is untrue… Wikipedia said so.

The fact of the matter is, we at The Whole Ball of Wax have succumbed to the pressures of the man. Long days and long nights have left us sleeping like a dog and with no time or energy for production. However, with holidays looming and a New Year approaching, The Whole Ball of Wax can say with certainty that we are once again open for business. It is hoped that diligence and commitment will make up the difference for the month of December and carry us into the New Year.
